I heard about Indonesian Everest’s Woman Team far before they released to the national paper (Wed 19 July). As an Indonesian myself I was sceptic about what these expedition intents to, launching the program when we’ve been battered by natural disasters and political unstability was not so wise in the point of view. Tsunamis, eartquakes, volcano eruption, terorist bombs just about adding misery into our believe that we can continue live in a ‘normal’ way.

His session : Copyright and Future Media turn out with various issues such as why he published his science fiction novels free in internet, what actually a battle ground of copyright and about Creative Common License. As a co-editor of Boing-Boing (urghhhh… the most popular blog in this planet) he also works for Electronic Frontier Foundation to promote civil liberties related with technology.

Why using web-blog ? February 28, 2005

Filed under: Blog, Singapore — ambar @ 10:39 am

We realised that internet would be the best way to communicate with people around the world. We create web-blog as our journal of living in S’pore to share it with friends and family either in UK or Indonesia.
For us, living in new country meaning new experience. Even Ambar originally from Indonesia (Java) where about 2 hours flight from S’pore she is never been in this country for actually live in. For Mark who been S’pore for short trip, this is new opportunity. To be honest this is also help us to keep memorize name and places because we are hopeless with that. Hope you all enjoy this journal !!
